Modern & Timeless. Although I love to incorporate birthday themes and props to my work, the most beautiful photos are the giggles and smiles we capture while being silly or tickling toes. The timeless pieces are what will be hung on your wall for years. My goal is to create that for your family.

My studio is located at the top of the hill on Clay Avenue in downtown Jeannette, PA. I am diagonal from the Jeannette Police station.

Yes, I travel in the surrounding Pittsburgh - Greensburg - Altoona area for photography sessions, events, and weddings.

Yes, I have liability and business insurance. My registered business name in Pennsylvania is Vivid Photography, LLC.

I started with Canon and I will always be a Canon shooter. I currently carry a Canon 5d Mark iii full frame body, carry a second Canon 5d Mark ii, and have a backup Canon 7d.

Depending on the age of the subject (and mood haha), this can vary. Generally speaking, I capture 80-100 images per hour of shooting time.

Portrait sessions have three package options. If you choose the packages with digital images, you do receive the rights to these images for printing.
Wedding clients receive the rights to all of their edited images within 4-6 weeks of the event.

Portrait sessions are generally booked 3-6 weeks ahead of time to ensure timely delivery of products for your birthday parties, etc.
Weddings are typically booked about one year prior to the date, however I have been able to book within a couple weeks in rare occurrences, so never hesitate to check availability.

Your proof gallery will be available after our session together within 3-6 days. Once you select your favorite images to be edited, the digital images will be mailed to you within 2 weeks. Products, such as prints, can be processed as fast as 2 days. Please inquire about all other products like albums, framed wall art, etc.

Expect to have some fun! You will receive a tip email about a week before your session that will provide suggestions on what to wear, what to bring, what accessories to have, and how to prepare (if necessary). Once you are at the studio, we will decide what backdrops and props to coordinate with the images we want to create.

I have collected TONS of themed props over the years, so please ask before buying anything you weren’t already planning on purchasing! There is a selection of over 50 backdrops and props including Sesame Street, Mickey Mouse, barnyard theme, pink & gold items, etc.
